Answer:

5.96

Explanation:

You want the measure of the side opposite the 34° angle in an obtuse triangle in which the side opposite the 28° angle is 5 units.

Law of sines

The law of sines tells you the ratio of side lengths is equal to the ratio of sines of their opposite angles.

x/5 = sin(34°)/sin(28°)

x = 5·sin(34°)/sin(28°) ≈ 5.96

The green box number is 5.96.
